THE DECISION to scale down media commitments at Punt Rd has been driven by the players, according to forward Nathan Brown.

“We felt that we’d spoken a fair bit over the last few years and failed to deliver and you just end up looking like idiots with egg on your face,” Brown said.

“We’ve decided that this year we really want our actions to do the talking.

Gee and he was doing so well at keeping his mouth shut until ...

And despite the club finishing on the bottom of the ladder last year, Brown believes finals are not out of the question.

“All I want to do is play finals and test myself on the bigger stage, and hopefully we’ll get there quicker than people think we can,” he said.

“We’ve got a genuine belief that we can. I can’t wait to play football in September on the MCG.”

We can only hope.

Browny might get a talking to after those comments  :wallywink. Leave the "F" word out until we finally make it in the next few years.

We obviously now have a policy of talking to the media about not talking to the media  :lol.
